From their very first semester, students begin their work as scholars and makers of the still and moving image, receiving extensive hands-on experience with the tools and techniques of cinema and photography as well as engaging with current media research and critique. Classes—even intro-level—are taught by faculty who are internationally recognized scholars, media makers, and artists, and who also have a passion for excellent teaching.
We have two related undergraduate degrees that both start with identical first-year courses, which include film aesthetics and analysis, photography, and cinema production.
